Overview / Philosophy

Mission

Montessori House for Children is dedicated to providing a comprehensive education that invites children to learn through a complete environment emphasizing indoor and outdoor learning spaces prepared specifically to spark the child’s natural learning tendencies. We work as community to foster confident, competent and socially responsible members of society.

School Philosophy

Montessori House for Children pledges to provide an environment where students' unique personalities and learning styles can flourish. Our goal is to provide enticing and interesting materials at a child’s own level, in a nurturing atmosphere that invites learning, builds confidence and encourages self-reliance and self-discipline. In this setting, children love what they do and they learn what they love. Beyond the gains for the individual, we endeavor to model a view of the world that is more about harmonizing differences than creating uniformity. From knowledge comes understanding. With understanding comes peace.

Uniqueness of Montessori House

Building from the theme of restoring a child to their natural world, our school goes beyond providing education within an indoor environment. We place great emphasis and respect on educating the child through our "Outdoor Classroom” environment as well.

We use our school gardens to enrich the child's experience with nature and its resources to create an understanding and appreciation of its importance and relevance on our, and future generations’ lives.

Each classroom has access to an outdoor patio and garden area.   Full length windows, lovely views of the outdoors and an abundance of natural light add to the natural setting.  The building itself is an advanced design utilizing architectural methods to enhance natural lighting and visual access to a beautiful indoor and outdoor environment. We also feature a media and electrostatic air filtration system to reduce allergens and pollens typically present indoors.
